Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times Hot Millions, which is not a hilarious comedy, is a pleasant, warm one. Rated: 3/4 Oct 23, 2004 Full Review Robert Kotlowitz Harper's Magazine [A] wonderfully funny movie. Aug 12, 2020 Full Review Penelope Houston The Spectator One of those comic boardroom fairy-tales (man bites computer) which never seem to quite achieve basic persuadability. Jan 6, 2020 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Much too chatty and morally stagnant.

Ricky P Hot Millions is a feel good film which, set in the swinging 60's, is a masterclass in good acting. No CGI or special effects just gentle humour set around a good script. All actors involved play their parts with aplomb. Liz Smith and Peter Ustinov are quite literally delightful in their roles and have you sympathising and cheering for them from the off. I only wish there were more like this made today! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/14/24 Full Review Audience Member An elegant movie leaded by Peter Ustinov becomes an even more elegant movie leaded by Maggie Smith. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member I would agree with the critic who said you may not realize it but you've been smiling for nearly 2 hours. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Ustinov is absolutely hilarious Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review ashley h Hot Millions is an excellent film. It is about paroled London fraudster Marcus Pendleton who poses as a computer specialist. Peter Ustinov and Maggie Smith give fantastic performances. The script is pretty good but a little slow in places. Eric Till did a great job directing this movie. I enjoyed watching this motion picture because of the humor. Hot Millions is a must see.
